Review for International Association for Hospice and Palliative Care Inc, Houston, TX, USA
My name is Eve Namisango, I am indeed honored to serve on the IAHPC board. I credit IAHPC for their support towards capacity building for palliative care professionals through education scholarships and for giving opportunities for scholars from resource-limited settings to present their work at international conferences. I have been a beneficiary of the conference scholarship scheme in the early years of my career development and that opened opportunities for me. IAHPC is the only organisation supports champions in resource-limited settings to engage their commissioners, policymakers, and governments to include palliative care in national budgets and health systems. The latter is a unique, yet critical skill and I am forever thankful to IAHPC’s senior advocacy officer, Dr. Katherine Pettus for her tireless efforts in training palliative care professionals in advocacy and for supporting partners to shape their advocacy messages. IAHPC, thank you for being at the forefront of generating the much-needed evidence to inform advocacy and decision making and for availing this evidence-free via the website.
